Elinor Pinczes describes the trials and tribulations of a parade formation of 25 bugs. As the queen is viewing the outline of the parading bugs she notices that one bug is not with the group, trailing behind. The group tries to create different numbers of rows and columns (arrays) but again the one bug is always a "leftover" (remainder). Here too students can be given different parade groups and they can generate formations that will leave one, two, or none out of the group.
